  "summary": "The Congress has announced plans to launch a 100-day campaign for OBC (Other Backward Classes) rights across Telangana, with an immediate demand for a nationwide caste census and the removal of the 50% reservation ceiling. Koppula Raju, an invitee of the Congress Working Committee, stated that the slogan raised by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi during his Bharat Jodo Yatra has evolved into a movement, with Telangana serving as a \"role model\" in conducting a scientific caste survey under Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy. Raju alleged that despite assurances from Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah, the central government has failed to include an OBC enumeration in the census process.",
